CJ does mean a lot to our organization but I don't agree with the more than Hardy ever would statement. Hardy brings a different element than CJ. I would as I indicated, like to keep them both and I hope that Hardy keeps it clean...

 

CJ has been the backbone of our D-line for several years, and I hope that he is for several more.  His presence and pressure has allowed others to focus on their job.  Even Hardy wasn't the same player without CJ on the other side.  But CJ is always CJ---strong against the run and the pass---no matter who is on the other side, and that's what makes him special.

Shocking thing is that the FO would release this today.

The day before his jury trial starts.

Kinda of throwing him under the bus. Cause I know now that the prosecutor will use this as character evidence.

"Ppl of the jury greg Hardy is such a bad man his own employer doesn't want him in the building. And that is after he tied a team record for the most sacks in a season. Why you ask? Cause even thy know he is guilty and not worth the risk"

 

 

Wrong,

 

That's pure speculation. The Panthers could have just decided on a better place to spend their cap dollars.

this is NOT like losing Peppers all over again! 

 

essentially we had already lost Hardy nearly a season ago! suck it up! don't be shocked if he take a DE with a top pick! ....unless Pep is coming home. smh

 

yeah it's different in the sense that the panthers are firmly in the drivers' seat on this

 

peppers actually turned down a massive last-ditch contract offer shortly before he signed with chicago.  the dude didn't want to play here anymore and couldn't care less about being a panther.

most importantly Peppers>Hardy... what he did in Carolina in comparison separates the haters versus from the real fans of this organization. They both were play makers yet took plays off but Hardy wasn't getting INTs nor scooping up fumbles or running the ball with offensive players chasing him. Peppers was a monster here and somewhere along the way the fans became haters and salty when it was time for him to leave. 

 

furthermore, Hardy has had a year off, what will that do for him.... hope he goes to the AFC! LOL... good luck to him, them!

      I don't think it's any weird or unique clause, it's the offset language, same thing so many contract disputes are over. It just means that including it, if a player is cut and then signed by another team, the original team would be able to subtract how much they're getting paid by the new team from what they still owe him on their guaranteed money. For example, it's why Russell Wilson signed for the minimum last year with the Steelers as that was included in his Denver contract.  So if he signed with the Steelers for $1 million, he'd get $1 million less from the Broncos, if it was $2 million, he'd get $2 million less, basically he couldn't make any more money than he was already going to make, so you sign for the minimum to not take unnecessary cap room from your new team while giving extra cap room to your old one. The problem with trying to include it in rookie deals is that a team trying to include it, it says they think they don't really believe the player will make it 4 years with the team before they cut them.  And this usually comes up with one or two rookies in most seasons, the difference is it's usually handled much more quietly and not as public and ugly as this one. The other difference is that it's happening with the Bengals, which I believe I saw are one of the few (or only?) team that doesn't have protections for rookies in rookie and mini camps to be able to participate even if they haven't signed their contract yet.  The other teams have injury protections that allow them to still play, but the Bengals do not, which is also why this one is so public and ugly, as most the time this happens, the rookie is still participating in the rookie and subsequent mini camps, giving them more time to get the contract done before training camp when they'd then hold out.
